One Month Old $108,183 Fantasy 5 Ticket Has Yet To Be Claimed
SACRAMENTO — Another winning ticket has escaped the notice of folks who played the California Lottery’s Fantasy 5 one month ago. The ticket, worth almost $110,000, might have been a birthday present to a family member. Remind them to check. Or, if you plan to clean the family car this weekend, you might want to double check before you vacuum. The stories California Lottery officials hear about lost — and then found — lottery tickets can be both incredible and unpredictable. But the next story could be yours.
The winning Fantasy 5 ticket from August 20 successfully matched all 5 winning numbers — 7, 8, 14, 18 and 39 on the draw of August 20th. The ticket was sold at Mayer’s Freeway Shell at 25340 North Chiquella Lane in Newhall.
The California Lottery recommends winners to sign the backs of their tickets, keep tickets in a safe place and contact Lottery officials or visit your local Lottery District Office as soon as possible. Winners have 180 days from the date of the draw to claim prizes.
More than 95 cents of every Lottery dollar is returned to the community in the form of contributions to education, prizes and retail commissions. The California Lottery contributes at least 34 cents of every dollar that players spend on Lottery products to public education and returns more than 50 percent of sales to players in the form of prizes. Since its inception in 1985, the Lottery has contributed more than $20 billion to California schools out of total sales of nearly $55 billion. Retailers benefit too, earning $3.5 billion in compensation since 1985.
